Abraham Lincoln gave fame to the phrase “government of the people, by
 the people, for the people.” Donald Trump had not been president again

capitalist class, by Elon Musk, for some capitalists. This regime has 
already increased the suffering of the people, but it also moves us 
closer to revolutionary overthrow of capitalism.
